CNN correspondent MJ Lee questioned President Biden about his age and mental acuity, referencing his previous statement that other Democrats could defeat Trump.

Biden responded by stating that he is the most qualified person to be president and to finish the job he started.

“Mr. President, for months when you were asked about your age, you would respond with the words, watch me. Well, many American people have been watching and they have expressed concerns about your age,” Lee said.

“That is your judgment. That is your judgment. That is not the judgment of the press,” Biden said.

“They express concerns about your mental acuity. They say you are too old. Mr. President, in December you told me that you believed there are many other Democrats who could defeat Donald Trump. So why does it have to be you now? What is your answer?” Lee asked.

“Because I’m the most qualified person in this country to be president of the United States and finish the job I started,” Biden said.
